You do a disservice to the author by only quoting the one sentence. What he says before this is "Neither side can frame a hypothesis that is specific or predictive.", which is the framework you describe.

Actually, Einstein's Theory of Relativity was a huge step in general principles, and was confirmed by many different specific, testable predictions, such as the bending of light due to gravity, to the slowing of the decay particles as they accelerate to the speed of light, and to the slowing of clock due to the gravity of the earth.

"What he says before this is "Neither side can frame a hypothesis that is specific or predictive.", which is the framework you describe."

Garbage. Evolution has been wildly successful at predicting, in precisely the same way that plate tectonics has. More so, in actual fact, as there HAVE been laboratory experiments done to prove evolution. The author is an idiot who has let his religion overwhelm his science.

Evolution is how the world works. God set it up that way. The only people that have significant problems with that are the "biblical literalists" of Christianity.

Experiments enhanced the validity of General Relativity, but it has not been confirmed or "proven." Just as Relativity showed the limits of Netwonian physics, so has quantum theory shown the limits of Relativity. Knowledge continually changes.
